    Isn't Cotto a free agent?

      Doubt it. I assume Arum has some options if Cotto is getting a $7 million guarantee.

        If Cotto wins the MW title, I'll be shocked.
        If Bradley fights Cotto, for the MW title... and wins?

        Ill be laughing my ass off.

        Timothy Bradley, the Middleweight champion..

          Haven't heard Timmy ever talking about 154. Unless I missed something. But he has no power to bring up in weight. Cotto will have zero respect for him. Not a good match up.

          Plus if Cotto wins tonight.. No way Timmy goes up to 160.

          Why don't arum put Timmy in with one of his many other WW options? oh wait....

            two PAC fights, a JMM fight, and now a Cotto fight?


            Top Rank is making Bradley some major coin

                Why is that? Because Cotto has a left hook and a decent jab? Bradley's movement and constant jab will cause Cotto fits. You have to catch Bradley shedding 20 pounds in 2 weeks and attack non-stop all the way through the fight as well as hit like a freight train to hurt him......that's just to hurt him.

                Tim would school Cotto to a points victory. Tim, on his worst night ever, beat one of the best pressure fighters out there in Provo. He beat an ATG counter puncher and master boxer in JMM. He lost on points after pulling a leg muscle to another ATG and barely took any damage while that same dude chewed Cotto up and spit him out.

                Cotto is a great fighter but he isn't beating Bradley...make the fight so I can collect my e-points.
                Sweet Triangle theories.

                Because Bradley can't keep Cotto off of him. Provodinkov is an animal but he's not great at cutting the ring off, which is why until he got beat by Bradley but hurt him a few times, he was considered a B level fighter. Cotto is actually technically sound when it comes to cutting a ring off and for the first time in a while, he'd have significant size advantage.

                I love Bradley, he's one of my guys, but he didn't impress me much against Marquez. Bradley can be countered and Cotto is an underrated counter puncher. He'll also come at Bradley differently than Pac and Marquez which is why your triangle theories are irrelvant.

                And his jab is better than decent, please.

                  Bradley would not win one round. Cotto is all wrong for him on every level.

                    Easy win for Cotto. Why not Canelo vs Cotto!

                      Nah, Cotto isn't going to be fazed by anything Bradley brings. He'll time him, bust him up on the inside and KO Bradley inside of 9 rounds.
